Well, Debby, another fail with the pig... :th I started the pot at 10:00 this morning and it's just now up to 110*. Where's my physicist when I needed him. :gig Plan B... Swap out the propane tank just before dark and set the burner to half open (the setting I use to simmer stock) and at 9:00 tomorrow we'll crank it back up and try again. 40 gallons of 35 degree water on a 150,000 btu burner. When I do my stock it'll come to a boil within 3 hours, but I generally do stock when temps are 50's and 60's and all the solids are at room temp when they go in.

I'm learning, just learning the hard way :barnie It's going to get down to 30 tonight, so I'll have to drain the hose before we swap out the tank. A fresh 20lbs tank generally lasts me about 36 hours, so this "should" work. I'm so glad we didn't try last weekend. It would have been way worse.
